Zen has no business with ideas.
The intuitive recognition of the instant, thus reality… is the highest act of wisdom.
The truth of Zen, just a little bit of it, is what turns one’s humdrum life into one of art.
Who would then deny that when I am sipping tea in my tearoom I am swallowing the whole universe with it and that this very moment of my lifting the bowl to my lips is eternity itself transcending time and space?
